Junkers 52 crash on 28. March 1942 - searching for any info

Hello!
Does anybody know anything about crash of Junkers 52 which happened on 28. March 1942 near town Rosenberg (?) somewhere in southern Poland? There was my great uncle on board who flew from front for vacation (he was not an airman, but served with Luftwaffe as ground radio operator). About 3 or 4 of the men died, another wounded. My great unlce was unharmed. He remembered that they crashed during snow blizzard into some tall hill and that pilot was some Leutenant. Unfortunatelly died already, so he is not a source of info anymore...
I would appreciate any information...
Regards
Heino Karner.
